    If Kane leaves then they will bring in a higher level signing and Kyogo. 100% Kyogo goes with if this is all true.

    Was extremely doubtful he'd go for it, but story has legs now.

    Every outlet running it as common knowledge.

    * feel sick.

    He's barely started here ffs. Was really hoping to see something special being built at this club. But once again, the EPL pats us on the head and empties us out.

    Agreed, it's a sore one but it's the case for every successful manager and player we have ever had. It has to end some time, for some sooner than later. Next coach has to be a level up, City Group going to be tapped again, guaranteed.

    Nah, it was massive squad rotation, think the game at the weekend where we want back to our strongest available lineup before the final proves that.

    I agree with this. But the annoying part is we'll never progress beyond where we are now. We need someone to to stay 5 years, get the backing and move us on.

    What changes I don't know. There isn't anything in terms of out business model or infrastructure changing. Nor league reconstruction. So that case its an individuals mentality and plan/choices.

    Perhaps we're telling folk, achieve this and that and you can go to a better league.

    All very frustrating.

    Celtic don't even need to advertise the post. guaranteed CL team should be enough to sway most managers.

    Hopefully they aren't taking the easy route and employing someone like Moyes, * that.

    I would also say losing the manager is one thing, I just hope he doesn't take the spine of the team with him.

    Moyes is contending for European honours with West Ham so I doubt he'd be in the mix.

    They were all probably standing round with the phone on loudspeaker pishing themselves.

    I doubt it as they'd need to punt Brazil's starting number 9 as well..

    Can't see Kyogo being first choice and he certainly wouldn't go as third..

    He’s his man for a reason. Does everything that is asked of him, think he’d be a big success down there.

    * gutted man..

    Wasn't gonna convince myself he wasn't staying after I did that with KT and obviously BRs departure but was hoping a other crack at CL with us and taking this stronger squad into Europe would keep him one more year.

    Now we just have to have faith the board have finally turned a corner and recruit a replacement properly...

    Gutted we didn't get that second crack at the CL with the big man. Think Ange as a man would have slotted in perfectly alongside other great legends of the club, which he would have become if he was able to make that jump up in Europe.

    Brought us some amazing times and turned the club around in a way no one could have predicted. Will always be grateful for that.

    Slightly disappointed that he's jumped at the first realistic opportunity (other EPL clubs approaching him mid-season was never goanny fly), and that I believed his chat about projects and 'building something special', but football is football.

    The big question now is this: what have the club learned over the last 3 years? An adequate replacement early doors is required, someone who can take us forward again rather than just a big name or a Celtic man.

    Having Mark Lawwell on the books gives me some hope, but I'm no longer automatically confident in the board/exec's to do things right, they will have to earn trust with the decisions they make once it's confirmed Ange is away.

    Exciting times though, a chance now to go up another gear. Bring it on!
